Answer 1

Nothing's wrong with that. You shouldn't move out until you're ready. I moved out a month ago and I'm 18 but I'm living with my fiance and we have enough money together. If I didn't have him I'd still be living at home or getting my girls together and getting an apartment or something. I moved because I was ready. My fiance (20 years old) just moved out when I did, but he moved due to family problems. If you really want to move out get your friends together and find an affordable place. Each of you could pay an equal portion of the rent. It's just an idea. But don't move until you're ready and have a good plan because you don't want to end up moving back with your parents. If you move out show them that you're responsible and you can succeed on your own.

Answer 2

15... in my day we left earlier than today. Our grandparents often left to make a living at age of 14 and even younger... and many sent their money home to help their parents, and kept only pocket money.

My four daughters were 17, 18, 21, 19.... and my son left aged 21.

Depends on many issues really as to when, a person leaves the family home, like: the home situation, their relation with parents, their work needs, their relationships with others outside, and peer group pressure.

Answer 3

I was 14, My mums place was to small and I couldnt bring girls back to the house for some "coffee". Not that i wasnt allowed, it was just a bit weird, So i moved in with my cousin and when I was 17 I hgot a flat to myself, Now Im 23 I look back at it and think about why most of my mates of around the same age are still living with parents

Answer 4

I was 18, a month out of graduation and I was on a bus to basic training for the army. It was my free choice and I simply didn't see a point in not beginning to live life after school was finished. So, I was off, I earned 2 presidential citations and saw some remarkable history made.

Answer 5

I'm from the US. I was 25 and I moved out because I got married. I stayed home because in my opinion it's a waste of money to rent an apartment when I can live at home for free. After I got married, we lived with my in-laws for 6 months before we found a house. We paid "rent" to my in-laws, but we got some of it back when we moved out. They were basically saving money for us!

Answer 6

18, to go to university. I never looked back. I don't think it's sad to stay at home but there does come a point in life where you need to gain independence and confidence and flying the nest is the best way to do that.

Answer 7

I was 21 and I moved in with some room mates. It was great. There's nothing like sitting on the counter top, making a mess on the diningroom table, and not making your bed, when you always got in trouble for that stuff as a kid!!!
I moved because I was ready and responsible enough to do it..

Answer 8

I moved out when I was 19 to go to University in another town...

Answer 9

I was 27 and I moved because my father made me move. It was quite traumatic and seemed very mean at the time but it was probably the only really good thing he's ever done for me. I probably would have never left on my own out of fear. But I learned that I could take care of myself just fine.

Answer 10

I was 16 and had been dying to get out since 14, I didn't get on with my mum after divorce, it took maybe 4 years of living on my own to make up, and realise it takes 2 to tango,I always had good close contact with my dad but then he was the one thrown out and my mum stayed.
